HEI Typical Specifications for Tray Type Deaerators, 11th Edition

The HEI Standards and Typical Specifications for Tray Type Deaerators (11th Edition), released in 2023, represents the most current and rigorous evolution of deaerator design. This edition reinforces the Heat Exchange Institute's stance that the Tray Type design is the gold standard for industrial and utility power plants, particularly where reliability and high "turn down" (the ability to operate efficiently at low flow) are required.

While the 10th Edition laid the groundwork for modern safety, the 11th Edition further refines the mechanical and chemical engineering requirements to prevent the most common cause of deaerator failure: stress corrosion cracking (SCC).

Key Content & Scope

The 11th Edition is used by engineers to specify a complete deaerator package, ensuring it meets strict safety and performance benchmarks:

  • Superior Corrosion Resistance: The standard explicitly favors the tray design because its stainless steel internals prevent the corrosive, oxygen-rich water from ever touching the carbon steel pressure vessel shell.
  • Performance Guarantees: It mandates the removal of dissolved oxygen to 0.005 cc/liter (7 ppb) and the complete elimination of free carbon dioxide ($CO_2$).
  • HRSG Integration: This edition provides specific "minimum standards" for Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSG), which are critical components in modern combined-cycle gas power plants.
  • Revised Storage Requirements: It defines "Effective Storage" and typically requires a minimum of 12 minutes of storage capacity to protect the boiler feed pumps during system upsets.
